The workers' compensation might provide payments to the family of a worker who died, medical treatment for injuries caused by a car crash that occurred while an employee was on vacation, and training to prepare an employee who was disabled by a workplace accident. However, it would not typically provide payments to a worker after they retire, as workers' compensation benefits are typically meant to cover medical expenses and lost wages for work-related injuries or illnesses. Retirement benefits are usually covered by other retirement plans or programs.
